Sobuj Bangladesh: Tree Plantation in Dhaka with Hope & Change BD

Sobuj Bangladesh: Partnering with Hope & Change BD

A Collaborative Tree Plantation Initiative For A Sustainable Urban Future

In mid-2024, Dhaka faced an environmental crisis following a mass uprising that severely impacted the city. The destruction of green resources, roadside trees, and vital urban greenery heightened the urgent need for reforestation.

Enroute Foundation, in collaboration with Hope & Change BD, initiated the “Treevolution-2024” program under the Sobuj Bangladesh campaign to restore greenery in the metropolitan zone.

This tree plantation program in Dhaka was not just an environmental initiative—it carried a deeper meaning. Every tree planted during the three-day event (22nd to 24th August 2024) was dedicated to the martyrs of the movement, symbolizing hope, resilience, and renewal.
